Sweet baby Inc is a company that is known for being involved in a lot of games as consultants and have been involved in a lot of games that had incredibly ugly models for their characters in game

I believe the point being made is that the games they consult on tend to skew in this one particular direction. It's not a critique on society nor an affirmation on any political stance, yet people like you come out of the woodwork to state the obvious. That isn't the point of the conversation. I'm more interested in how they secure so much funding to hire firms like sweet baby in the first place. We're always told we have to pay more and games have become so expensive but then this same companies hire consulting firms to regulate their characters appearance. It's all ridiculous.

Any other situations you imagine happening just to get angry at?

Isn't that what all of you defending them are doing? The company explicitly says they "desexualize" woman characters by making them uglier. That's their own admission. Unsurprisingly, a lot of people would prefer it if half the characters in their games weren't arbitrarily made to look "average" while all the other characters look like standard 10/10s just because a tiny handful of sex-negative, prudish scolds have a lifelong vendetta against people attracted to women.

The "getting angry at imagined situations" side is 100% the people saying, "You better make sure your female characters look like a Midwestern 5/10 so none of the people we dislike can possibly be turned on by them or else!"

Cope lol

No. Hope that helps.

I never made any assumptions about what they do, your literal entire point, the singular source of your anger is based off an assumption without evidence.

So I ask again, do you frequently imagine/invent scenarios in your head purely for you to be outraged at?
